Event Description:
The Alzheimer’s Association is proud to partner with former Wisconsin Governor Marty Schreiber to bring you a special session to create awareness around Alzheimer’s and dementia. During this free event: Schreiber will share lessons from his journey as a caregiver for his late wife, Elaine, who lived with Alzheimer's disease. He will candidly describe his challenges and missteps and highlight how compassion and humor provide comfort to both caregivers and the person with dementia. Attendees will learn what they can do to fight Alzheimer’s disease in their communities by becoming involved in the Walk to End Alzheimer’s. The Alzheimer’s Association will also share resources for families impacted by dementia. Attendees can meet Schreiber at a 30-minute meet & greet. Learn more at http://bit.ly/martytalks.
